    Employability

    Internships play a key role in your training. Acquiring experience after what you have learnt in your degree is the best way to enter the employment market. There are two types of internships: curricular – which are included in your study plan – and extracurricular – which you can do on a voluntary basis.

    In order to complete curricular internships in companies, you will need to have passed 50% of the credits and to have registered for the subject before starting your internship. These internships are monitored by the company and your internship advisor, and they will be evaluated in midterm and final reports.

    If you want to take your work experience to the next level before finishing your university education, you can pursue an extracurricular internship. You can do these at any time, but we remind you that the internship is a formative complement to your studies; therefore, the more knowledge you have acquired prior to the internship, the more you will benefit from the experience.

    Frequently asked questions

    Bilingual Education is increasingly present in our society, because of the opportunities that speaking languages presents to those aspiring to become the leaders of tomorrow.

    The Master's Degree in Bilingual Education offers the tools to be a teacher in bilingual centres, but, thanks to the focus on active methodologies, it can also help you to be a better teacher regardless of the subject you teach and in any language.

    The Master's Degree in Bilingual Education has many aims and objectives. Among them are:

    • Improve our teaching skills
    • Increase our command of the English language
    • Learn how to manage a multilingual classroom
    • Attend diversity in the multilingual classroom
    • Develop our own materials and reflect on how they are learned.

    Depending on where you live, the requirements may vary. You will need a degree for the stage you are interested in teaching (Infant, Primary or Secondary), a good knowledge of the foreign language (generally, the requirements are around C1) and linguistic qualification, which can be achieved with language certificates and with postgraduate studies such as the Master's Degree in Bilingual Education.

    Language Schools and official Cambridge exams are always a safe bet when it comes to obtaining language certificates.

    The management of bilingual educational centresis very similar to that of any other centre, but there are specific requirements that must be taken into account.

    For example, for a centre to be bilingual, it has to provide the administration with a series of documents that include the project of the centre, where the profile of the teaching staffmust be specified, to ensure that it has the necessary resources for teaching in a second language, in the same way that the subjects that will be taught in each language and the methodological approaches that will be applied must be considered.

    It is necessary to have the agreement of the staff of the centre and of the families, so a good manager of bilingual centres will have the ability to communicate, negotiate and lead the project. And, of course, an innovative and intercultural profile will be a guarantee of success.
